General faculty support consulting.
Institutional consulting for sponsored programs and research development offices that want a program-manager perspective baked into their federal-grant support work.
Broader support that goes beyond a single program.
Not every faculty support engagement is about DOE Early Career or NSF CAREER. Sponsored programs and research development offices often want a federal program manager to weigh in on the full range of what they do — from proposal review workflows to internal training materials to how they field mission-fit questions from PIs.
Dr. Spotz consults with university offices on the shape of that work, drawing on more than thirty years in scientific computing and eight years managing federal research at DOE ASCR.
How the engagement works.
- Assessment of your current faculty support process for federal-grant readiness.
- Advice on where a program-manager perspective would strengthen your workflows.
- PM-perspective review checklists tailored to your target programs.
- Optional workshops or debrief sessions for your staff and applicants.
- Ongoing advisory as your office evolves its support work.
